"Way back in May - ancient history now - the editorial and design teams assembled at the B Bar Ranch in Montana's Tom Miner Basin, on Yellowstone National Park's northern border. The ranch is owned by longtime HCN reader and supporter Maryanne Mott, whose late husband, Herman Warsh, a board member in the 1980s, seeded our internship endowment and other education programs. The B Bar runs an organic beef operation that practices regenerative ranching."
"During our retreat, we saw moose, sandhill cranes - even grizzly bears (from a comfortable distance). We hung out on the ranch house porch, sharing stories, setting goals and talking about ways to do everything better. (Your thoughts and suggestions are always welcome! Email us at editor@hcn.org.) That same month, the fundraising team headed to Paonia, HCN' s western Colorado hometown, for a few days of brainstorming and fun."
Editorial and design teams met at the B Bar Ranch in Montana's Tom Miner Basin near Yellowstone National Park. Maryanne Mott owns the ranch; her late husband Herman Warsh seeded an internship endowment and other education programs. The B Bar runs an organic beef operation practicing regenerative ranching. Retreat activities included wildlife viewing (moose, sandhill cranes, grizzly bears), porch conversations, goal-setting, and brainstorming about improvements. The fundraising team gathered in Paonia, western Colorado, for days of brainstorming, with occasional customer service and editorial colleagues joining. A small group celebrated retired art director Cindy Wehling; five attendees represented 150 combined years at HCN.
